s&p chart performance fron 2009 until 2010
I asked CHATGPT what happened to an investor who sold his stock portfolio in 2009 and was out of the market for 2010 As you can see, the S&P 500 index experienced a sharp decline during the global financial crisis, hitting a low point on March 9, 2009. However, it then began a strong recovery, rising steadily through the rest of 2009 and into 2010. By the end of 2010, the index had recovered most of its losses from the financial crisis and was close to pre-crisis levels.
Overall, the S&P 500 index had a total return of approximately 48.5% during the period of February 9, 2009, to December 31, 2010, which includes both price changes and dividends.
